So you have a can/jar of jackfruit in the cupboard and you have no idea what to do with it. I’m here to help 🙂 What you don’t want to do with jackfruit is just eat it like it is – you have to spice and flavour that baby up, just like it’s a blockContinue reading “BBQ Jackfruit”

Quinoa and sweet potato falafel
Confession time – I’ve never made a falafel myself at home that didn’t turn out terrible. Not sure what it is exactly that I do to them but they seem to want to disintegrate whenever I deep fry them, and baking makes them taste too… healthy (you know [junk food] me). But now folks, IContinue reading “Quinoa and sweet potato falafel”
Seitan steaks
So this is a recipe that I really HAVE to share with you all. I make seitan once every couple weeks on the weekend, because it lasts ages, you can freeze it, it’s a brilliant source of protein and you can do so much with it. There are loads of seitan recipes knocking around theContinue reading “Seitan steaks”
Spicy tofu & brussels sprout fried rice
Here’s a combo that you might not think goes together, but it really does. Brussels sprouts and fried rice? Nah. Oh, but YEAH. Many people aren’t keen on that stinky little vegetable, but I’m a huge fan of sprouts. They’re usually only found as part of a roast dinner (hidden under the gravy), but afterContinue reading “Spicy tofu & brussels sprout fried rice”
BBQ pulled tempeh sloppy Joes
In my quest to veganise anything and everything, I’ve given Sloppy Joes the positivelyjen vegan once over. I missed out on the “joy” of Sloppy Joes before becoming vegan, because I was never really a fan of mincemeat (no surprises really considering what’s in the stuff…). Now that tempeh is on the scene there’s noContinue reading “BBQ pulled tempeh sloppy Joes”
Vegan corn chowder
Finally the cold weather is upon us (in the northern hemisphere anyway) and we can all start making soup again *huzzah* One of the easiest and most versatile meals to make in the winter is soup, and there are so many vegan soup options you’ll never be bored. Do away with your tinned stuff, there’sContinue reading “Vegan corn chowder”
Sausage & black bean casserole (vegan)
It’s almost casserole season whoop whoop! Living in London means it’s basically always casserole season though – do we even have a summer? 🙂 If you’re feeling like something hearty, warm and filling a casserole is always the answer.  They’re also awesome because you can have them with anything – mashed spuds, cauliflower rice, basic bitch rice,Continue reading “Sausage & black bean casserole (vegan)”
Get saucy – vegan lasagna sauce
Lasagna is just such a classic meal. Â I used to cook it all the time before going vegan, but was never sure how to transfer it over using plant based ingredients. I should never have worried – the amount of plant based milks and cheeses around means lasagna will never go off the menu.Continue reading “Get saucy – vegan lasagna sauce”
Spicy vegan “chicken” nuggets
You’ve gotta love seitan – making meat dishes out of plant based products for decades 🙂  I had seen recipes for seitan “chicken” nuggets all over the interwebs for months, and sampled them in various vegan restaurants (they were delicious), so thought I’d give it a crack myself. These ones are spicy, moist on the inside and crunchy onContinue reading “Spicy vegan “chicken” nuggets”
Easy rainbow salad (vegan)
Yeah yeah yeah, vegans eat salad all day and all night, don’t they? Surely you can tell by now from this blog the above statement just isn’t true, because I love vegan junk. Â Every once in a while though you need to get some greens into you. Â And some purples. Â And oranges. Â And quinoa. ThisContinue reading “Easy rainbow salad (vegan)”
